Can anyone tell me if I will need to modify/upgrade this current setup to achieve 2.8-3.0GHz? In terms of cooling....
Case: Lian-Li PC60+
PSU: Zalman ZM460B-APS
Motherboard: Asus P5QL-E
Processor: Intel Core2 Q8200 (Stock heatsink/fan)
Memory: Corsair Dominator TWIN2X4096-8500C5DF 4GB Kit 5-5-5-15
GPU: Sapphire HD4850 512MB
HDD: Western Digital 250GB SATA
ODD: Pioneer 20X DVDRW
I was trying to get an Antec NeoPower but they were all out of stock and I didn't want to get a @$$ppy PSU, and never had experience with anything other than Antec so...I know Zalman makes decent stuff from what I have read here and there..so I took a shot. Hopefully it is an okay PSU, if not I can always swap that out to my other system and buy a better one.
So, the question is...will the PSU power this to the 2.8GHz range or higher and without additional cooling? At the moment without modifying any jumpers/bios settings the system is running at around 32/34C under minimal load (a few web browsers open, a few non gaming applications open (word, excel, powerpoint, etc).
